Essential Cast Iron Funnel Stand – 2 Hole & 4 Hole – Laboratory Funnel Support
Product Overview
The cast iron funnel stand—also referred to as the iron funnel rack, funnel support stand, laboratory funnel holder, or funnel drying rack—is a durable and stable piece of laboratory equipment designed to securely hold funnels during filtration, drying, or storage. Unlike lightweight plastic or wooden alternatives, cast iron funnel stands provide exceptional stability, preventing tipping and ensuring safe handling of glass funnels during experiments.
EduSupports offers cast iron funnel stands in two practical configurations to suit different laboratory workflows:
2-Hole Funnel Stand: Compact design for smaller benchtops, holds two funnels simultaneously. Features a square cast iron base (approx. 10×10cm) and weighs approximately 1kg.
4-Hole Funnel Stand: Larger capacity for high-throughput filtration or drying applications. Features a rectangular cast iron base (18×8.5cm, base weight 0.55kg) and weighs approximately 1.55kg.
Each stand is constructed from heavy-duty cast iron with a durable sprayed finish, providing excellent stability and resistance to corrosion. The height-adjustable design allows users to position funnels at the optimal height for various filtration setups.
Whether you need a compact 2-hole stand for a student workstation or a larger 4-hole stand for a busy research lab, EduSupports has the right solution for your application.

Why Choose Our Cast Iron Funnel Stand?
The cast iron funnel stand offers several distinct advantages over wooden or plastic alternatives for funnel support and organization.
First, its heavy-duty cast iron construction provides exceptional stability. Unlike lightweight plastic stands that may tip or wobble, the solid cast iron base ensures your funnels remain securely in place during filtration procedures.
Second, the durable sprayed finish protects against corrosion and chemical damage. This rust-resistant coating ensures long service life even in demanding laboratory environments.
Third, the height-adjustable design allows you to position funnels at the optimal height for different experimental setups. This flexibility makes the stand suitable for various filtration and separation procedures.
Fourth, the two configurations (2-hole and 4-hole) allow you to choose the right capacity for your workflow. Whether you need to support a single filtration setup or multiple simultaneous filtrations, there is a configuration to match your needs.
Fifth, the stable, non-slip base prevents accidental tipping, ensuring safety for valuable glass funnels and samples during use.
